    Male panther chameleon

    Hi Kingenemy! Welcome to the forums. I hope you've had plenty of time to research husbandry of these beautiful creatures and are all setup prior to trying to buy one! That being said, there are plenty of reputable breeders in our sponsors sections, all have lots of available babies throughout...

    Ambilobe vs Ambanja

    Yep, they'll have the same temperament, same care, it really just comes down to your choice in Colors. I do love the "Ambanja Nose" though. They have a slightly longer nose that sticks out, and most will have yellow lips. I have both, can't really say I like one over the other. Look at it like...

    Club Ambanja

    Woohoo CLUB AMBANJA! This is pickles, he's about 5 1/2 months old, obtained from Kammerflage. He turned a ridiculous blue after being exposed to that California Sunshine for about half an hour.

    Just got waxorms bruh

    Yep, I would cut them out all together. They're a cheap feeder and this can make it attractive, but not very good for your chameleon. As others have suggested, Hornworms, Silkworms, even superworms (as a treat, and don't confuse them with mealworms which are a big no no)

    Hey newbie... question about panther vs.

    Panthers are historically much friendlier than Veiled chameleons. That being said, there's always an exception and Veiled chameleons with some work can grow fond of you. However since you have children, I would opt for the Panther. Suck up the extra cost and it'll be worth it.

    My chameleon is weak

    This will NOT help. The vitamins/calcium need to be ingested with feeders. You'll end up with a clogged spray bottle and your chameleon covered in calcium, and not ingesting it.

    My chameleon is weak

    Dehydration is just a part of the problem. If it were just that and NOT the tongue as well, then it's a possibility you could rehydrated without a vet Visit. She needs a Vet, end of story. Additionally, she should NEVER go 2 or 3 days without mistings.

    My chameleon is weak

    100%. I should have been more clear about it. Get her to the vet to get her treated, then we can fix the other issues which I'm sad to say, probably exist.

    Light selection

    In my defense...I said it would help!

    My chameleon is weak

    To start, your chameleon is very sick. You NEED to take it to a vet asap! Sunken in head/eyes are a very bad sign and she appears to be very dehydrated. Not being able to shoot her tongue correctly is usually a sign of MBD due to lack of correct supplementation. Also while you're at it, please...

    Light selection

    Yes! I have a Quad Fixture, It has one UVB bulb, one grow light and two regular bulbs for lighting of the cage. In addition, I have the separate Basking bulb in a separate fixture.

    Ah gotcha, well regardless, as long as she's healthy that's all that should matter.

    Light selection

    Truthfully you don't NEED a grow lamp. Depending on the plants you use, you may not necessarily need one. Will it help in most cases...?Sure. But a Separate dedicated UVB and basking light you'll need 100% of the time. UVB bulbs can be found in all sorts of sizes. I've seen some as long as 4 ft.

    Light selection

    You can use this to light the enclosure, but you still need to provide a separate UVB source as well as a heat/basking lamp. So if you're looking for a "all in one replacement," there isn't one.
